A pulse-pounding police operation in Greater Noida’s Rabupura late on Friday exposed a brazen gang equipped for cow slaughter, ending in gunfire and captures. Two fired-upon suspects lay injured, as three comrades were rounded up in the melee.
It began with a suspicious auto weaving through Ronija Kat under police scrutiny. Flight turned to fury with bullets flying toward officers, met by precise counterfire wounding Syed Amin of Shahin Bagh, New Delhi, and Goramiya of Nuh’s Chandni Mode.
From them: illicit tamper pistols, empty and live ammo. Captured were Nuh locals Munsar Kamaal and Bilal, plus Delhi’s Pushpendra Kumar, with their ride packed with knives, syringes, vials, saws, bars, and bags—textbook slaughter kit.
Prosecuted under the 1955 UP Cow Protection Act, the wanted quintet now faces scrutiny of their rap sheets. Wounded received care, fueling probes into wider criminal webs.
Amid rising concerns over illegal trade, this clash reaffirms police resolve. Stakeholders applaud the bravery, calling for tech upgrades and intel-sharing to preempt future threats in vulnerable border zones.
